MavTV to Air Six from the Short-Tracks

TOLEDO OH (3-18-08)--Officials of the ARCA racing sanctioning body
and MavTV have announced a one-year agreement under which MavTV will air
at least six ARCA RE/MAX Series events in 2008.

The events scheduled for broadcast include both races at Salem Speedway,
the spring event at Toledo Speedway, Berlin Raceway, the Illinois State
Fairgrounds mile-dirt and the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds mile-dirt. The
events will be packaged into tape-delayed, one-hour programs.

"We are very excited to have worked out an agreement to add ARCA
RE/MAX Series events to our 2008 original motorsports programming lineup
on MavTV," said Steve Severn, CEO of MavTV network. "The
addition of these races will not only help us gain viewers that follow
the ARCA RE/MAX Series, but it will also allow us the opportunity to work
with a first class racing organization."

Chet Burks Productions, the same entity that produces ARCA RE/MAX Series
programming for SPEED, will also produce the events for MavTV.

"As we continue in our efforts to grow interest and value in the
ARCA RE/MAX Series, the opportunity for additional television coverage
benefits all associated with the series," said ARCA President Ron
Drager. "The MavTV agreement expands television coverage of the
2008 ARCA RE/MAX Series to include more races at more venues, and
that's good for everyone."

Severn added, "We have been focusing our efforts on expanding the
brand in the US and international markets in cable, DTH, IPTV, and mobile
using our HD quality content. We are beginning to enjoy success for our
male oriented programming across multiple media platforms and found that
there is a tremendous appetite for our original content featuring
ultimate fighting, wrestling, AMA motorcycle racing, car racing, and
Manumentaries in HD. Since most of our lineup is truly original content
not being aired on other networks, we felt now was a great time to take
advantage of the move into HD to support our distribution partner's
emphasis on HD services."
